Digital cameras and public access computers
11:23 AM EST 11/10/08
My apologies if you are already familiar with this, but it has been coming up with increasing frequency here. A patron will come in with their digital camera and want to upload pictures to a website (e.g., MySpace, Facebook, Flickr, an email account, etc.). Most current cameras have a setting that must be adjusted manually to use the camera like a USB drive. For us, this is the only way the camera will work with our public access computers. Of course, for each camera, the method to do this is slightly different with slightly different wording, but can usually be found by working through the camera's settings menu. And, unfortunately, some cameras (usually older ones) do not have this capability (they are expecting you to install software to use the camera which will not work on our setup).
